The National Pay Commission has stated that work is underway to resolve the challenges and issues identified within institutions that have migrated to the new pay framework, as part of the government's efforts to harmonize state salaries.
Under the State Salary Policy Act, employees of the Civil Service and the Judiciary migrated to the new salary structure starting last November. Since then, with the completion of the transition for six additional state institutions, a total of 93 percent of institutions have now been brought under this framework.
The Pay Commission stated that the work to address concerns and issues within the agencies that have migrated to the new structure is ongoing without interruption. In this regard, they noted that they are reviewing cases received by the commission, consulting with relevant agencies, and working to find solutions to those matters.
Furthermore, the commission mentioned that technical preparations are being made to finalize the transition of the remaining institutions to the new salary structure.
The Pay Commission has previously stated that the changes brought to basic salaries have provided civil servants with an advancement of 15–150 percent. However, employees of some agencies have expressed concern, claiming that the salaries and allowances they receive have decreased due to the metrics utilized when the new framework was formulated.
